Today Arfred is serving Oddside Ales – Derby Days, a 13.8% imperial rye ale aged in whiskey barrels with mint. Riders up! This boozy joy is brewed in honor of the signature drink of the Kentucky Derby, the mint julep. I’m a huge fan of thoroughbred racing and it’s so nice to have the Derby back on the first Saturday in May. It’s such a great day for the sport in general, plus for us horseplayers a chance to cash in big tickets. If you’re playing the races tomorrow feel free to drop me a line if you want to talk horses! Cisco recommended betting Mandaloun (and was heartbroken to see him just barely miss it).

Pairs well with Call to the Post
